Kawhi Leonard Is Very Excited About Being in a Car

The smile-averse NBA star has finally found something that makes him really and truly happy.

Kawhi Leonard is an incredible athlete and a defensive monster on the basketball court. He's one of a few players in the league that's ever been able to successfully guard LeBron James and he's hilarious in those Spurs HEB commercials:

But what he isn't is a guy who smiles a lot. Which is fine. We all know telling a person to smile is a fucked up thing to do. I'm just saying Kawhi is a reserved guy. For instance here are two photos of him after the Spurs won the championship and he won the NBA Finals MVP:

But today we found the thing that truly makes Kawhi smile. And it turns out that thing is IndyCar racing. I know, I was surprised too, but what are you going to do?

Good to know. I hope Kawhi enjoys a lucrative and joy-filled future as a two sport athlete.
